Algerian Lemonade



I went to Baraka Cafe, an Algerian restaurant near Central Sqaure in Cambridge, Mass. a few times and loved it--especially their lemonade. After a few attempts, I recreated it... and haven't made it for over 10 years. Something reminded me of it the other day. I hope you enjoy it.

1 quart lemonade
1/8 c. rose water
2 springs of mint
6+ strawberries, quartered
3-4 sticks of cinnamon

How easy is that? Just let them sit in the fridge overnight and give it a good stir the next morning. (This will let the cinnamon infuse--and it might have a tiny pink hue.) Get a nice tall glass with ice in it.
